Ralph Lauren quietly shuttered its two-year-old 20,000-square-foot store last week. Other brands are expected to close boutiques in a city that has lost its luster for cash-rich mainland Chinese tourists.

“We’re friends so it was a no brainer” said Philip Start of his collaboration with Mark Hare of Mr Hare shoes during a joint show. This season, alongside his signature tailored suits, Start also debuted a summer capsule collection of casual separates. The offer ranged from summer blazers and zip-front bombers to blousons in fabrics including linen and chambray. Hare, meanwhile, created X, a 10th season anniversary collection of his greatest hits. It featured brightly colored driving and boat shoes as well as the Arno, a slipper-espadrille hybrid in butter soft cashmere suede.
